This house was perfect for our family of 4. Wildlife viewing from the porch each morning was amazing. The neighborhood is 100 % safe with a gate attendant 24/7. The waterfall hike in the back of the neighborhood was an added plus. Close enough to walk go town and easy to get a taxi when we didn’t want to walk.

Response from Host

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Jenna.

We’re very happy to hear that the house was a great fit for your family and that you enjoyed watching the wildlife from the porch each morning. Those jungle moments with monkeys and birds nearby are always very special.

It’s also great to know that you appreciated the safety of the gated community and had the chance to visit the hidden waterfall trail. The location makes it easy to walk into town or catch a quick taxi when needed.

It was a pleasure hosting you and your family at Casa Cascada, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future.

We had an absolute blast staying at this beautiful villa! The views were amazing, just like being in the middle of the jungle. We were visited by wildlife every day! Monkeys, frogs, geckos, toucans and macaws. We loved that. The host Julio was super responsive and even helped me plan and decorate the house for my sisters 30th birthday while we were staying there. He and the staff did a wonderful job with that. He had local suggestions and advice on activities and food, and the location was close to everything we wanted to do. We drove most of the time since we had rented a car, and you definitely need some torque to get up the driveway to the home. 10/10 recommend staying here. We felt right at home. We hope to be back one day!

Response from Host

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Mackenzie.

We’re truly happy to hear that you had such a great time at the villa and enjoyed being surrounded by the jungle and its incredible wildlife. Seeing monkeys, toucans, and macaws right from the house is always a special experience.

It was also a pleasure helping you plan the decorations for your sister’s 30th birthday. We’re so glad the celebration turned out well and that it became a memorable part of your trip. Our team always enjoys helping create those special moments for our guests.

Thank you as well for mentioning the location and local recommendations — we’re glad you were able to explore the area easily. And yes, the driveway can be a little adventurous, but the jungle views at the top make it worth it!

It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we would love to welcome you back anytime to Manuel Antonio Estates. Pura Vida ????

Julio’s place was amazing the house was so spacious and clean the two rooms and bathrooms were exactly what we needed. The staff on site were nice. It was so easy to get inside even after our flight being delayed twice the security men were helpful and nice. The animals on site were the best part we couldn’t get enough of them and the POOL came in clutch.

Wonderful location. As many other reviews have mentioned, you wind up seeing more wildlife from the balcony even then in Manuel Antonio. Small opportunities for improvement: (1) as other reviews mention, there isn't really A/C cooling in the living room area -- makes it hard to use the shared space if your party is heat sensitive, and (2) for some reason, they make a point of telling that you in pre-trip emails that you should ask if you need a late checkout, but they seemed very annoyed to be ask for an hour or two -- just seemed like a disconnect (but they let us store our bags, so not a problem in the end)

The neighborhood is difficult to find at night. A light by the entrance off 618 would help. Look for the Raindrops Spa signs. The spa is located inside the neighborhood.
We loved that is a gated community. Once we got to the security gate, the attendant actually walked us to our house while we followed in the car. Once you know where it’s at, you’re fine. The drive way is super steep, but doable.

The property is in the jungle, yet just 8-10 minutes from all the good restaurants on the main road to Manuel Antonio. The park is maybe 15 minutes away.

Even though we were in the jungle, we were never bothered by insects on the balcony or in the house. That amazed us. The home was immaculate and the staff is very responsive. It is a community of maybe 12-15 homes and it seems extremely well managed. The beds and pillows were super comfy. We didn’t use the pool bc it was in the shade and the water very cold. Overall, we had a great stay.

The only issue we had was not knowing we had to check in at the office. No where in the instructions did I see to check in at the office first. We drove needlessly for over an hour looking for the house. The host even knew we were having trouble and did not direct us to the office. The place is great for the price.

Response from Host

Thank you very much for your review! We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Casa Cascada. We truly appreciate your feedback.

We did send the detailed directions to the house on two occasions, including both Google Maps and Waze links. We’re sorry the directions didn’t work for you; fortunately, other guests haven’t experienced issues finding us. We also offered you an early check-in at 2 p.m., as you mentioned you were already nearby at the beach, and informed you that check-in and key pickup take place at the office for arrivals before 4 p.m.

All of your messages were answered within 5 minutes in an effort to assist you as best we could.

We’re glad that, despite the initial confusion, you enjoyed your stay and we hope to have you back in the near future!

Nos hospedamos 2 noches en la casa de Julio, todo estaba muy limpio y bonito.. tiene un balconcito con vista al bosque, el acceso a la casa es un poquito empinada ya que las casas están ubicadas colina arriba, pero con bonitas vistas..
Nos recomendaron la catarata que es un plus, nos encantó, inmersa en la naturaleza con una frescura increíble (tomar en cuenta que el acceso a la catarata es mayor al nivel intermedio, no recomendado para adultos mayores ya que no hay sendero con superficie plana y estaba un poquito resbaloso) pero en fin, nos dimos un chapuzon riquísimo ya que veníamos sudados y cansados de la caminata
En general nuestra estadía fue perfecta!

Kitchen was well stocked. Very nice home. Hot water for shower; cold AC in bedrooms. Very comfortable. Enjoyed the deck. A lot of monkeys moved through our first morning. We were disappointed they didn’t come the second morning. We didn’t see any lizards, ants or insects in the house. Much better experience than other Airbnb we stayed in.
I took the hike the host sent to the waterfall at the back of the housing development. It was a rougher than I expected but I made it. Gave a nice rain forest experience that wasn’t commercialized.
I would highly recommend this house.

If you want to stay in the Quepos/Manuel Antonio area then you should stay here. The place was more beautiful in person than the pictures and was spotless when we arrived. We got in after the office was closed and the host left the key with the security guard so it was super easy to check in. The place is on a mountain in the middle of the jungle so you get to have beautiful mountain and jungle views outside the patio glass doors and your windows. Each bedroom has its own access to the wrap around patio which is awesome and there was a grill if you wanted to use it. They provided fresh fruit and vases of beautiful tropical flowers when you come in. They even do a cleaning for you mid stay.Everyday we were able to hear birds, and different jungle sounds and saw Morpho butterflies, we saw a whole troop of the white face monkeys in the trees, we heard the howler monkeys which was so cool, and I saw a monkey running around on a roof nearby. Definitely worth the price.

Loved our stay. This was the last stop of our trip and a bit of a splurge but worth it. We arrived late the first day and the gate guard was waiting with our info and a smile. Got to the house and some monkeys were hanging out on the balcony. Everything was beautiful and clean - a bouquet of fresh flowers and freshly stocked fruit bowl wasanice touch.

The place is easily walkable to hiking, town, the beach, etc. Some people did a tour of MA National park which picked up right at the office. All in all, fantastic stay and great way to end our trip.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at Casa Cascada at Manuel Antonio Estates. Julio and our concierge Maria Fernanda were super helpful. Always answered our questions promptly. Maria provided the best recommendations for places to eat. We were never disappointed. The property was beautiful and well appointed. Lots of towels, plenty of indoor and outdoor showers, spacious baths and bedrooms, beds were comfortable, the A/C was cold, the hand soap and shower products were high end. We had fresh fruit and flowers welcoming us when we arrived. We saw and heard macaws and many other song birds and butterflies as we sat on the balcony in the mornings having our delicious Costa Rican coffee. There was maid service available for a very reasonable price, who also did our laundry half way into our trip. The Raindrop Spa is located on the grounds, walking distance from Casa Cascada. Would recommend taking a yoga class or having a massage there too. Amazing first trip to CR! Pure Vida!!

Beautiful location in a private, gated area with about 8 other houses all very private. Julio was always responsive to anything we needed. The biggest tip I have is take the walk on the property to the private waterfall. Costa Rica is full of waterfalls, but this is special! Your own private waterfall and swimming lagoon. Other worldly. We enjoyed the pool when we came back from that hike. The house is an easy 10 minute drive to parking for Manuel Antonio National Park. We enjoyed wood fire pizza and monkeys at El Wagon restaurant nearby. The morning of check out we woke up to no power. A transformer had blown in the night and was getting fixed. Julio allowed us to go to the national park and come back to shower before we got on the road. They did not have to do that, but it was very much appreciated!! One of our best stays in Costa Rica! Just book it if you’re in the fence! Oh, and the shower in the place was fantastic as well!

We just returned from our 2 weeks stay at Manuel Antonio Estates and Casa Cascada. It was just what we had hoped, the perfect blend of nature and town accessibility.
The house is spacious and for us well located in the community since we did not rent a car and walked to town almost daily. There is still a steep part of the road that is unavoidable but the house is just past the top of that hill. You won’t need a gym, it’s great incline training! The balcony was perfect for eating breakfast and any meal we were home. We saw monkeys and iguanas daily, scarlet macaws heard daily and seen often right there. We walked the property every day and saw a beautiful variety of birds including toucans, motmots and many different smaller birds.
You have your own washer/dryer just know it is secured at the bottom of your flight of steps outside, not inside the unit. The washing machine is awkward to use because of its location in the small enclosure. Appliances are older but worked once we got some additional instructions. This being said we still felt very comfortable here and had an absolutely wonderful experience at Casa Cascada
The management of the casa is amazing. Any question or concern is addressed immediately and pleasantly. The housekeeping staff is equally efficient.

If we return to Costa Rica next year we plan on going back to Casa Cascada and Manuel Antonio Estates!

Thank you so much Susan for sharing your detailed and glowing review of your recent stay at Manuel Antonio Estates, specifically at Casa Cascada. We're thrilled to hear that your experience exceeded your expectations, providing the perfect balance of natural beauty and accessibility to town.

It's wonderful to know that you found the house to be spacious and strategically located within the community, making it convenient for your daily excursions into town. We understand the incline of the road might have been a challenge, but we're glad to hear that the positioning of the house provided unintentional yet effective incline training!

The balcony sounds like it truly became a cherished spot for you, offering stunning views and abundant wildlife sightings. Observing daily visits from monkeys, iguanas, and the majestic scarlet macaws must have been truly memorable. We're delighted that the property's surroundings provided such rich opportunities for wildlife encounters.

Your feedback regarding the washer/dryer setup is appreciated, and we understand that its location outside the unit may have been slightly inconvenient. We'll certainly take this into consideration for future improvements to enhance our guests' experiences.

It's heartwarming to hear that you felt entirely at ease during your stay and that our management and housekeeping teams were able to provide exceptional service throughout your time with us. Ensuring our guests' comfort and satisfaction is always our top priority, and we're glad to have met your expectations in this regard.

We would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back to Casa Cascada and Manuel Antonio Estates next year should you have the opportunity to return to Costa Rica. Thank you once again for choosing us for your vacation, and we look forward to the possibility of hosting you again in the future!

Three generations stayed together - perfect layout for everyone to have space while being together. Pool was hit with all ages. Wildlife kept kids engaged for hours. Great family destination, though WiFi was spotty in some bedrooms. Overall excellent for large family gatherings.

Response from Host

Multi-generational vacations are so special! We're thrilled everyone from grandparents to grandchildren enjoyed their stay. We'll look into the WiFi issue to improve connectivity throughout the casa.

We had a great time! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Anytime I needed anything or had a question, I was helped quickly.
The house is stocked up pretty good with everything you could need, including a hairdryer. The beds were pretty hard, too hard for our taste. But if you like firm beds...then you will love it.
We saw several different kinds of monkeys that come up on the deck almost every night. We even had an iquana come down off the roof, onto the tree and on the deck to sun itself. Also just up the hill in the trees we saw beautiful mccaws and a toucan. So if you come for wildlife you will not be disappointed.
We also walked to the waterfall on the property. It is not for the weak, very steep hills to get to it. But your own private oasis once you get to it. We jumped in an cooled off and had it all to ourselves.
The town of Quespos is walking distance as well, but again a very steep hill coming back.

We're pleased to hear that the house was well-stocked with everything you could need, including a hairdryer, making your stay more convenient. We appreciate your feedback regarding the beds; while we understand that firmness preferences can vary, we're glad to know that those who enjoy firmer beds would appreciate them.

It sounds like you had some incredible wildlife encounters during your stay, with monkeys visiting the deck almost nightly, an iguana sunning itself, and the beautiful macaws and toucan in the nearby trees. We're thrilled that the property's natural surroundings provided such rich opportunities for wildlife sightings, adding to the uniqueness of your experience.

Exploring the waterfall on the property and having your own private oasis sounds like a wonderful adventure, although we understand that the steep hills to get there might be challenging for some. We're glad you enjoyed the tranquil oasis once you arrived.

Thank you for highlighting the proximity of the town of Quepos, although we understand that the steep hill on the return journey might be daunting for some guests. Nonetheless, we're glad to hear that you found it accessible and enjoyed exploring the area.

We truly appreciate your recommendation and are grateful for your kind words. It was our pleasure to host you, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.

We had the most wonderful week here. We loved sitting on the deck watching and listening to the wildlife. The location was close to everything and the staff was wonderful. We didn't anticipate the steepness of the roads and driveways but we learned as we went. The pool was a lovely way to cool off from the heat at the end of the day. We will most definitely return as we fell in love with the country.

I stayed in two properties over a three week period, and felt both were great value. They were clean, things worked as advertised; quiet and all of the staff were helpful. Lots of wildlife outside the windows as well, which is still fun after 20+ years of visiting Costa Rica. :)
I will start my search for accommodation in the future at Manuel Antonio Estates.
